A young family is one of the key concepts of youth sociology and family sociology raising the problems of social health and parental behaviour. This article provides an overview of a Russian young family as a phenomenon from a sociological perspective and analyses models of parental behaviour in the context of social health formation. The authors of this article also present a layered assessment of the social health of a young family. The social health of a young family is considered as well-being in terms of primary family socialisation, marital and parent-child relationships, a system of socialisation of family values and preferences, ethical and moral norms of family society, and also young parents’ attitudes to their children. The authors of this article conclude that the risks existing in society affect a young Russian family which cannot effectively fulfil its socialisation functions and positively influence the development of new generations
